To Him Who I Hate

To Him Who I Hate
I need not a man
To define who I am.
I can make it on my own
Lest I’ll be damned.
Was anything real
Was it all just a lie?
There goes my dream
Of my perfect guy.
Can’t understand why
The reason behind,
The actions he took
Which I continue to find.
I can’t even cry
The hate rages so.
How in the ****
Could he go so low?
He was my all
Too bad I wasn’t his.
Unfortunate now
That I must have his kid.
Should I stay around
I show I am weak.
It is not the attribute
I choose to seek.
My soul is distressed
My heart aches with pain.
I burn with a fury
Which is hard to contain.
Before me lies strength
Behind me mistakes.
I see there the path
That I must take.
